Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has suggested his party would review the policy of mandatory voter ID if elected to govern.

A report into the controversial law by the All-Party Parliamentary Group on democracy and the constitution last year described voter ID as a ‘poisoned cure' that prevented at least 14,000 people from voting in the local elections and first-of-its-kind polling earlier this year found five million voters could be disenfranchised by the rules at the General Election, the first time they will apply nationally.
